Neat. Your oldest deck, unplayed and full of creatures!

This deck needs a couple of Dredge cards. Urborg and Yavimaya as well.

I don't like Jester's Cap here because you have no way of reusing it and {B} does it more effectively.

Planar Portal seems awkward in {B}. Diabolic Intent seems appropriate with this strategy.

Nether Spirit is a unique card. It's perfect in your creatureless strategy but it's going to fail here. Back in the day MBC utilized it with Contamination. I would cut one for the other.

Pernicious Deed Golgari staple for a reason.

I ALMOST forgot an addition that in my opinion, should be in every walker deck: Sisay, Weatherlight Captain.

Any power increase just lets you put more and more expensive card FROM your deck onto the battlefield. WUBRG on her also means alt Commander option too. He effect is pretty self explanatory of why in walker decks, she is a tutoring EDH dreamboat. Cheaper than Planar Bridge and Planar Portal and superior to most other tutors for Legendary things. AND Reusable during the same turn.

This is a solid first EDH deck! Straight forward combo.

Retraced Image would act as ramp with that many basic lands.

Back to Basics a hefty tax that you don't have to pay.

Planar Portal the only tutor you are missing.

Have you considered Emergence Zone, Crystal Vein, City of Traitors or Urza's Saga for your land base? A few Tutors and choice card draw pieces like Ring of Three Wishes, The One Ring, Planar Bridge, Planar Portal & Citanul Flute could help you quickly outvalue your opponents with your Commander's ability, as could Ramp pieces like Ashnod's Altar & Doubling Cube. Portal to Phyrexia & Grimoire of the Dead could potentially win some games here as well, depending on the pod!

It is solid. I am yet to venture down the colorless path but I keep seeing more decks posted. Zhulodok, Void Gorger is the push I needed to try it out.

Only card I don't like is Sisay's Ring. Voltaic Key would be more value for less and would look right alongside all those Vintage mana rocks.

Or Planar Portal / Ring of Three Wishes, which are more expensive but probably less risk of possibly getting it exiled. Tamiyo's Journal could work but it would take some time to build enough clue tokens.

Thanks Zyndro_. I had missed/forgot that Sunforger instant only! I guess I'll have to use Chance for Glory, too bad I won't have redundancy though. I guess I could use Tamiyo's Journal and/or Planar Portal to find one of the sorcery options, but that seems, slow. Journal seems like the better of the two but I don't think it is the way to go, at least not without a Clue package.

Planar Portal seems bad in the color known for tutors.

Where is the Deserted Temple for the big mana lands? And where is the Dust Bowl with that many basic swamps?

Karn's Bastion would feed your commander, your planeswalkers, Lux Cannon and a few creatures.

Hecatomb dope! Great use of old jank.

Koskun Falls would be another weird old card that would fit this strategy.
